Session: Advances in Large Molecule Processes

This session welcomes papers addressing the latest advances in fundamental and applied studies towards making biological drug molecules. Examples would cover rapid process development, enhanced efficiency, improved quality or process intensification in preparing monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, recombinant proteins, peptide synthesis, or new modalities. Scientists involved in all aspects of upstream and downstream processing are invited. Topics may include, but not limited to, cell culture preparation/fermentation, separation/purification, concentration/buffer exchange, and finish device/delivery. Issues related to the crystallization of such biological molecules are also relevant.
